    Thats a tough one! I used "closed" in every option possible and made the
restrict_post file list only my email address. The problem is, all mail is seen
coming from me so anyone can fake my address and send anyway... It might be
better to make a fake email address in the restrict_post file and then send
your mail out by approving your own bounces. What a pain..
    Anyone have a better suggestion ???
